Obituary

Gordon Charles Johnson, 85, of Muncie, passed away on Sunday, September 27, 2020. He was born on May 26, 1935 in Hermitage, PA to Vay and Janet (King) Johnson.

Gordon graduated from Hickory High School in 1953 and Youngstown State in 1961. Newly married, he and his wife, Dorothy, moved to Muncie, IN with Westinghouse Electric in 1961, where he worked as both an Industrial and Quality Assurance Engineer. Gordon and Dorothy raised two beautiful and talented daughters. As a family, they attended St. Andrew Presbyterian Church. They vacationed together every year and traveled throughout the country, most often camping in state parks. It was important to both of them to foster and support education. Gordon also had a lifelong interest in architecture and automobiles. He enjoyed being a member of ALL, the Association of Lifelong Learners, and treasured the friends of "The Pinochle Club."

Gordon wishes to send special remembrances to many others who made his life special and meaningful: Dorothy's parents, William and Beatrice Jenkins, both the Wayne and David Johnson families, the Heubel family, the Burns family, the Bartlett family, and the Hughes family.

Gordon is survived by his daughters Barbara Ingelhart (James) and Beth Erskine (Gary); 3 granddaughters, Kara Ingelhart, Kelsey Ingelhart, and Megan Stephenson (Blake); 1 great granddaughter, Charlotte Stephenson; and many nieces and nephews.

Gordon was preceded in death by his parents; his wife; his brothers, Wayne and David Johnson; and his sister, Phyllis Heubel.
